Libster, I did remember to change it with USPS. That website isn't terribly user friendly and with work being done on it, who the heck knows if the change took. Check your email. I just sent it. Thanks!
Edited to add: I just checked the postal website and everyone's data is mixed up and a couple of names, including yours, have been deleted. Amazing. Glad I got the labels done without any apparent glitches. Oh, how I hope there aren't any!

Finally found it, a photo of some of the blocks I received when I did the boom swap a couple years ago. This actually ended up being the center of a queen sized quilt for the back of a double wedding ring pattern for my daughter.

Oh, my gosh, how lucky you are! Grands and great-grands! I hope to have grands some day but it's looking like a more remote possibility as time goes on. One son is dating a woman a few years older than he is who already has a 10 year old daughter and isn't planning on more. The other is seeing someone who, it appears, may not be able to have children and that son may well not want any anyway. Well, if that's the case, I'll have to borrow some from other people or get lots of animals to fill the void. We'll just have to see what life brings. (Chickens, I see chickens in my future.)
We are blessed. From Jan '98 to Jan 2006 we added 9 newborns to our family. And my daughter & sons were married 7 yrs apart. They all just got in the family way at once. In one 5 month period we had 4 babies, (2 were twins). It was so much fun then. They are all close as cousins, even take vacations together. Now they are all growing up so fast.
Funny to to think that DH & I started as 2 46+ years ago and now a family dinner is 24, and delightfully noisy! I'm pretty sure we never thought that far ahead!
And there are precious ones out there who need a mentor/grandma. I have a young 15 yr old in a difficult family situation that I am teaching to hand sew. Amazing how quickly we bonded.

GramE, I agree, there's nothing like those grands and great-grands! My great grands are going on two and their Moms have a handful to keep up with. LOL My DH and I were married 47 years before he died. I just wish he could have met these 2 precious little ones. If you think I spoil them, he would have been a million times worse. LOL Axel will be 2 in May. He's having a Sesame Street party. All the kids are to dress up as their favorite character. This should be a fun party. His Mom told me it's not mandatory that I dress as Big Bird. Imagine that! LOL
Janice, I have my tracking number now.
QuilterMomma, y'all are making me like orange too. I've always really disliked it until here lately. Love your quilt.

Thanks for posting for me, this is the panels that I am going to use to make a quilt for my daughter-in-law, suggestions? Thanks Kass, I wasn't sure if I was going to use the black n white stuff, but I would like ideas, and I do plan on making some sort of small fill in blocks, and I had one suggestion of a shadow box with the panels.
